Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt servers to shut down in April

In between the release of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines and its long-awaited sequel, we got a bunch of different spin-off titles across a range of genres. One of the most interesting was the 2022 battle royale Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt, which after just a few years is officially shutting down.

Making the announcement on their blog, the team at Sharkmob wrote: “During these past 4 years, we have been thrilled to see your passion and dedication to Bloodhunt. Your feedback, creativity, and enthusiasm for our game has meant the world to us. However, despite you, our amazing community, the current player population has reached a level where keeping the servers running is no longer sustainable. This has led us to make the difficult decision to take Bloodhunt offline.”

As with most live-service titles, Bloodhunt’s various elements will be disabled in a stepped manner, with token purchase no longer being purchasable from today. That said, any unused tokens can still be redeemed in the digital shop.

Come the 28th of April 2026 however, servers will officially shut down and the game will no longer be playable.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt was an interesting title. While the game itself was a solid and unique enough battle royale experience, it released too late at a time when the genre was oversaturated and so never managed to find its footing.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
